   About Al Lewis & Sarah Howells

The Story so Far..............

"London can seem like an intimidating place, especially when you come from a small Welsh town. Maybe that's why Al Lewis and Sarah Howells make such a good team.
Through either fate or coincidence, Al (from Abersoch) and Sarah (Milford Haven) met on the tube one night, traveling home from separate acoustic shows. Having both only recently moved to London, they decided to keep in touch. Jam sessions turned to writing sessions which resulted in a number of London shows together and the Skin and Bones EP due for release 15/06/09.

With a sound that echoes the classic songwriting of the 70's (Tim Buckley, James Taylor), but delivered in a modern style (Bon Iver, Sufjan Stephens, Cat Power), the big city is already holding much promise for the girl and boy from Wales."

I played you on this Sunday night's show.

Thank you!

Here is the iPlayer link:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00l56bb/Adam_Walton_14_06_2009/

This coming Sunday night we will broadcast the Future of the Left session that was postponed last week, and I will be talking to Andrew Falkous about their splenetic new album 'Travels With Myself and Another', an album that takes guitar-shaped music into a furnace and forges it into fearsome new shapes.

Ray Davies will talk about the new album of chorally-arranged interpretations of Kinks songs and will offer his Words of Wisdom.

Jo Bartlett will be in to talk about this year's Green Man Festival.

Huw Pooh will be talking about The Modernaires.

Please send your music [high quality .mp3's] + a short biography & a contact number to:

themysterytour@gmail.com

I'm still eager to hear from anyone who wants to contribute a 'Yourspace' piece to the show, for more details please visit the link below:

Please also note that I post playlist info 'live' as the show is broadcast on:

THANK YOU / DIOLCH YN FAWR,

The 15th of June hmmm? Alrighty. So far away. Oh well, it'll be worth the wait I presume. :) I love the way you two sound together. Very harmonic and beautiful.


Best of luck to you guys, you deserve it!

Hi there

Two reasons for writing:
1) To show you this clip of what NOT to do at open mics: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdoD0wh3XM8
2) To tell you about my new album of 16 songs on cd and download now! (see my page).


All the best
